Wankhede Stadium, Mumbai: Pitch Report
The Wankhede Stadium continues to produce sporting games, thanks to the pitch on offer. However, there are a few factors that help the batters a bit more than the bowlers. These include the shorter boundaries across the ground and the red soil pitch, which makes batting easier thanks to a more consistent bounce. The average first innings score in this year's T20 Mumbai League has been 174.
